FOREIGN NEWS

in spite Of the fact that the question
has been under almost constant discussion
for the last fortnight, the English govern
nent IS still undecided whether it will
suppress the Irish National League. Two
thirds Of the conservative leaders are op-
posed TO taking immediate steps 70 that
end, and il Is likely that the final decision
wiz be in favor Of letting the league alone
for time at least.
"A London dispatch Of Aug. 10 saws:
The attempt 10 blow up the West Claire
railway bridge near Ennis Aug. l6 has
created a great sensation. The outrage
IS attributed, Of course, TO the American
section Of Irish dynamiters, and In sup.
port Of this opinion all London is drawn
TO the fact that the cartridges that did
not explode are Of American type. This
is not the most conclusive evidence that
could be brought, but it is quite sufficient
70 satisfy the police and the public that il
was conceived and executed by Irish.
Americans tits more probable. however
that the outrage was the work of dis.
charged employees or peasants. actuated
BY some real or fancied grievance against
railroad.
Victor Tissel has published in Paris
an extract from letter which he asserts
the late Gar wrote to his morganatic
wife, Princess Dolgouroh after the Ber.
lin Congress. In the letter the Gar saws.
The Congress has been an immense mis-.
fortune to Russia Germany sold us
russian statesmen who had full powers
were not equal to their important mission.
Bismarck has revenged himself for the
support gave France during my stay in
Berlin. The letter is regarded in Paris
as conhrmatory Of the revelations recently
made by General Lefie.

CHICAGO. Dec 14.-Before business began
un Change today, predictions OF lower
prices with further breaks in the grain
market were made.
May wheatopeneda at S23sc, decline from
last nights close of 36@Ic. There was
good buying from various sources at this
price and May firmed at S25Sc in less than
ten minutes. The buying was mostly by
numerous sharp scalpers, who sold short
Yesterday, and took advantage of an early
weakness to run up trade.
In corn the May futures opened at 531sc,
with sales in the pit at the same time at
53c. There was an unexpected good de
mand for the stuff at SIC, and ten minutes
later May was up to 1890, which was its
closing figures yesterday.
May pork opened unchanged at Sl5.25
Heavy early purchases of corn by two
prominent local operators advanced May
TO 53;5c in'the first half hour. The break
at 1890 landed May corn at SEC; May
pork broke from S15.25 to S15.05 An hour
after the opening May sold at $500 and
was weak at that The break continued
and May wheat went e. down
to S2@S216 cents The lowest
prices of the morning were reached by both
corn and wheat on the break directly after
1890 At that time May wheat got down
to S20S21s cents. There was so much ex-
citement and 50 much selling when prices
got down to this figure that the crowd
found itself short before it knew it. A
few attempts to even up made the crowd
quite nervous. Before noon May wheat
was back to So cents, and for long time
it held moderately steady around S3I@
So cents. May corn got down to 52II5 cents
on the break, and it reacted on
recovering by nervous shorts. The break
was largely brought about by heavy
sales by Detroit plunger. The packers
flooded the corn pit also just before the
break and helped the decline for its influ
ence on provisions. At 1890 May corn was
reasonably steady around 5335c, but the
crowd was still nervous.
Provisions Were feauureleSS. Any little
demand would firm prices up trife, but
they would drop off of themselves when
the demand was withdrawn. May pork
did not sell below SIS during the morning
All the afternoon markets were higher, be-
ing largely influenced by corn in which
there was a free covering by shorts. May
corn advanced to 5315c.
The leading futures were as follows:
